The Aogami No.2 Damascus Sashimi Yanagiba Knives are masterpieces of blacksmith Shigeki Tanaka, carefully forged & finished with his own hands for their top-rate cutting performance.





The knives feature stylish Damascus-patterned blades with a core of Blue Paper (Aogami or Aoko) No.2 Steel. This material has highest wear resistance and toughness because of special hardness (hardness of 63-64 HRC). Very good choice for high end Japanese kitchen knives.

Premium Paulownia Box


The beautiful Paulownia Wood Box adds a touch of premium accents for the best present.

The stock is extremely limited. Very sorry for the inconvenience in advance.
